held the previous record of 11:31.69 that she set in 1998.
Her winning time of 5:02.42 in the 1600 meter run was also a
new meet record, breaking the old one of 5:12.12 that she had
set in 1998.

Chris Gervais also momentarily held a new meet record in
the triple jump when his leap of 42-0 broke the old meet
record of 41-11.75. However A.J. Cham of Worthington edged
Gervais' jump by an inch to win the meet and set a new
record.

game to defending sub-section champion Murray County Central.

"You can't win any games if you don't score any
